Nlewedim, a former BBNaija housemate, said her stay in the house taught
her never to let her emotions get the better of her.
The reality star disclosed this on Saturday night in an interview with Chude Jideonwo on TVC.
Erica was referring to her outburst that ill-fated Saturday night that
led to her earning a third strike and, consequently, disqualification
from the house.
According to Biggie, she was disqualified for
consistently breaking rules and behaviour that was not in congruent with
house rules.
Erica,
however, confessed she never knew what happened to her that night,
adding that the next day she asked Dorathy who she had a spat with the
night before. And Dorathy told to be more careful next time.
It
would be recalled that that night Erica let herself loose and called
Laycon, the eventual winner of the BBNaija Lockdown Season 5, all sorts
of unprintable adjectives, adjectives such as drumstick, thin, ugly etc
when Ebuka said Laycon had told him she had tried to kiss Laycon twice.
She also threatened to kill him outside the house, adding that Laycon
would not live up to 50. That got many fans wondering whether Erica had
prior knowledge of Laycon’s health status before he confessed he had
sickle cell anemia.
In the interview with Jideonwo, Erica also
said many things led to her outburst that night. Putting the blame on
alcohol, she also said she was dealing with mental stress during the
week leading to her disqualification, adding that she felt she had
only one friend (which was Kiddwaya) and she couldn’t do the things she
wanted to do to let up steam since she was constrained by house rules.
She also said she felt there was nobody to whom she could express how
she felt in the house at the time.
Erica, who said she didn’t
watch the grand finale, as she was engaged with some family friends that
night, said she had moved on. She also expressed how shocked she was
when on leaving the house she saw the love her teeming fans had shown
her, referring to the support she had and #GoFundme for Erica, which
they organised for her. Asked whether she had received the money, she
replied in the negative but was optimistic it would soon get to her.
Asked about her relationship with Kiddwaya, she said they still remain
the best of friends. She also revealed that apart from Kiddwaya, Dorathy
was the only housemate that was closest to her. She then appealed to
her fans to follow the path of peace and see how they can be of help to
one another and help each other grow.
Asked whether she felt
she deserved the third strike that led to her disqualification, she
replied in the affirmative but also confessed that she didn’t feel she
deserved the first two strikes.
